Eumir Marcial heading to Thailand to gear up for Tokyo Olympics Olympic-bound Eumir Marcial is set to join the training 'bubble' of Filipino boxers in Thailand, following the conclusion of the ASBC Asian Elite Men and Women Boxing Championships in late May. According to Association of Boxing Alliances in the Philippines (ABAP) secretary-general Ed Picson, the professional boxer relayed the message recently while training in Zamboanga under the auspices of national team coach Gerson Nietes. "I think it's a good decision. Actually, I've been trying to get him to Thailand even when he was in the U.S. A [Thai] visa was already sent there to the L.A. consulate, but he decided not to pick it up so we're applying him another visa," explained Picson in Tuesday's online Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum.
